WASHINGTON The head of the World Bank says for the first time in human history, it is possible to end poverty around the world．Jim Yong Kim told a Washington audience Tuesday, he wants to make ending world poverty by 2030 a top goal for the bank and governments around the world．World Bank President Jim Yong Kim says that the problems of poverty, hunger and inequality are wide, urgent and a matter of survival of millions．"We know that despite the great successes of the last decade, there are still about 1．3 billion people living in extreme poverty, 870 million who go hungry every day, and 6．9 million children under five dying every year," he said．But Kim told a Washington audience that the previous successful efforts to cut the number of people living in extreme poverty by half give them hope．"We are at an auspicious moment in history, when the successes of past decades and an increasingly favourable economic outlook （前景:）combine to give developing countries a chance-for the first time ever-to end extreme poverty within a generation," he said in a speech at Georgetown University．"Our duty now must be to ensure that these favourable circumstances are matched with deliberate decisions to realize this historic opportunity．"Kim says success will require increasing the speed of economic growth, particularly in South Africa and South Asia．But he warned that civil unrest （动乱）could happen if economic growth does not help people at all income levels, and also include women and youth．Kim says that the World Bank and other development agencies will have more resources to get this job done right．"Meeting this 2030 goal will take extraordinary effort," he said．However, Kim warned that all the progress in fighting poverty could be destroyed by climate disasters unless the nations of the world do more to prevent climate change．1．In the opinion of Jim Yong Kim, world poverty _____．A．is not quite hard to end by 2030B．exists only in Africa and AsiaC．is difficult but hopeful to end by 2030D．will be sure to disappear by 20302．Which of the following gives Jim Yong Kim the hope to end world poverty?A．A decreasing number of people are living in poverty．B．Great successes have been achieved in science and technology．C．Economic growth is increasing in developing countries．D．All countries have started to fight poverty．3．The underlined word "auspicious" in Paragraph 5 most probably means "_____"．A．unforgettable B．luckyC．disappearing D．important4．According to Jim Yong Kim, in order to end world poverty, _____．A．we must prevent civil unrest from happeningB．we can't ignore the needs of women and youthC．we must make more people realize the importance of fighting povertyD．the countries across the world must work together to stop climate change5．What s the passage mainly about?A．The key of ending world poverty is preventing climate changeB．A top goal - ending world poverty will possibly be achieved by 2030C．The success of ending poverty - economic growthD．The progress in fighting poverty【参考答案】1--5、CABDB【湖南省长沙市长郡中学2016届高三下学期第六次月考】Most of the time, the ground feels solid beneath our feet. That's comforting. But it's also misleading because there's actually a lot going on underground. Masses of land (called plates) slip, slide, and bump against each other, slowly changing the shape of continents and oceans over millions and billions of years.Scientists know that Earth formed about 4. 5 billion years ago. They also know that ourplanet was hot at first. As it cooled, its outermost layer, called the crust （地壳), eventually formed moving plates. Exactly when this shift happened, however, is an open question.Now, an international group of researchers has an answer. They've found new evidence suggesting that Earth's crust started shifting at least 3.8 billion years ago. The new estimate is l. 3 billion years earlier than previous ones.Not long before 3. 8 billion years ago, lots of small planets were hitting Earth, keeping its crust in a hot, melting state. After the hard crust formed, much of it sank at various times into the planet's hot insides. There, it melted before returning to the surface.In some places, however, the crust never sank. One of the oldest such places is in Greenland, in an area called the Isua supracrustal (上地壳) belt. The rocky crust there is between 3. 7 and 3. 8 billion years old. The belt was once part of the seafloor, but now it is exposed to air.The researchers recently took a close look at the Isua supracrustal belt. They noticed long, parallel cracks（裂缝）in the rock that have been filled in with a type of volcanic rock.To explain this structure, the scientists propose that tension in the crust caused the seafloor to crack open long ago. Hot, liquid rock oozed from deep inside Earth to fill the cracks. Finally, the whole area cooled, forming what we see today.That explanation, plus chemical clues inside the rock, suggests that the Isua supracrustal belt was once part of plate under the ocean, beginning around 3.8 billion years ago.“It's a fantastic case of solving a jigsaw puzzle（拼图）,”says one of the researchers. He notes that the puzzle was “a very difficu lt one because these rocks are all very old and have been badly ruined".32. The underlined phr ase “oozed from" in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning toA. filled up graduallyB. washed away quicklyC. flew out of slowlyD. broke through suddenly33. What can we infer from the text?A. The shapes of continents and oceans changed slowly.B. The Earth's crust started shifting l.3 billion years ago.C. The crust began to shift when the Earth was hot.D. The hit from small planets made the Earth cool.34. What do scientists know about the past of the Isua supracrustal belt?A. It was once covered by hot, liquid rock.B. It remained under the deep sea.C. It stayed hot and sinking.D. It kept moving slowly.35. The text is mainly aboutA. why the Earth cooledB. how the Isua supracrustal belt formedC. whether the ground beneath our feet is stillD. when Earth's crust began shifting【答案】32.C33.A34.B35.D34.B细节理解题。
